Conclusion

ARPA offers these goals and their supporting discussion as a blueprint for an important rail passenger network for Arizona, a network sufficient unto itself to allow persons to travel widely throughout the state without resort to auto use. In this way, the congestion, emissions, auto damage, and personal injuries now experienced throughout the State's urban and rural highway system may be mitigated, to the great benefit of all of the citizens of and visitors to Arizona.

ARPA commends these goals to the citizens of Arizona.
